still under the weather

my ride home last night was enjoyable but after the endorphins faded i was left feeling pretty crappy. just a cold with aches and some congestion but by the end of a work day and some riding i was beat. i drove in this morning because i have an allergy appointment this afternoon - and i'm hoping to finally determine if i actually do have an adverse reaction to ibruprophen or not. i had an asthma attack as a kid shortly after taking ibruprophen and my doc then said i should just assume i'm allergic and avoid it. but my allergist is dubious and thinks i should do a challenge. as an athlete, i have been at a bit of a disadvantage not being able to take anti-inflammatory medication so i'm very excited to learn the result.

happy thursday.
